Ingredients

Scale

Core Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh corn kernels
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup plant-based milk, warmed
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan (plant-based)
  • 1 teaspoon vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural)
  • 1/2 teaspoon natural gelling agent
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Sauté the aromatics: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add finely chopped onion and garlic. Cook gently until softened and fragrant, about 3 to 5 minutes. This forms the flavorful foundation that complements the sweet corn perfectly.
  2. Add fresh corn and broth: Stir in the fresh corn kernels, then pour in vegetable broth. Allow the mixture to simmer gently, letting the corn cook fully and release its natural flavors into the liquid, creating a naturally tasty base.
  3. Blend and add creaminess: Using a handheld blender or food processor, puree half the corn mixture until smooth but still slightly chunky. Return the puree to the pan, then stir in warmed plant-based milk and natural gelling agent until the texture thickens into that signature creamed consistency.
  4. Season and enrich with Parmesan (plant-based): Mix in the vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (natural), grated Parmesan (plant-based), salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine all the flavors, then warm gently for a minute or two until everything melts and harmonizes beautifully.
  5. Final touch and serving: Give one last gentle stir before transferring to a serving dish. The creamed corn should be luscious, thick, and bursting with flavor, ready to delight your family or guests.

Notes

  • Use fresh corn for the best sweetness and texture.
  • Do not over-blend; keep some corn kernels whole for a pleasant bite.
  • Warm the plant-based milk before adding to prevent curdling and maintain smoothness.
  • Adjust consistency by adding more vegetable broth or plant-based milk if a thinner creamed corn is preferred.
  • Use freshly grated Parmesan (plant-based) for better melt and flavor release.
